[GRASS-user] Unable to modify PS1 variable

Micha, I don't have a bashrc file in ~.grass7. And copying ~/.grass.bashrc to ~/.grass7/bashrc and restarting Grass doesn't change anything (PS1 remains the same). It seems the grass77 startup is clobbering all other places where $PS1 is set.

~ Eric.

Hi, I am having trouble changing my PS1 bash prompt in Grass 7.7svn. I have PS1 set to "\W >" in ~/.grass.bashrc, but instead my prompt consistently prints

"GRASS 7.7.svn ($LOCATION_NAME):\w > "  (with LOCATION_NAME and \W expanded to current Grass location and full directory path, respectively). The result is my prompt is eating almost the full width of my shell window.

Just wondering what other resource files need to be changed?

On my system (Debian, GRASS 7.6) it's ~/.grass7/bashrc



Thanks,

~ Eric.
